What are the settings for PDF output to work?

edited November 2004 in General
ReportBuilder standard trial version.

I can generate reports and preview them but when I set the devicetype to PDF
nothing happens.
What are the settings for the PDF format to work?

Best regards,

Paul Hectors

    Another question, can we stream it? We stream our reports to PDF in our EWF
    application. Is this possible without saving the file first and then reading
    the file into a memory stream?

    Thanks.

    SMP.

    Hi Paul,

    If you are previewing and printing these reports at runtime, you need to add
    ppPDFDevice to your "uses" clause in order to register the PDF device. Also
    be sure you have the Report.AllowPrintToFile property set to True.

    Hi,

    Currently the PDF device is only capable of outputing to a file. This would
    be a nice feature perhaps for a later release.
